Title: Extendable divergent tail pipe for propulsion unit
Inventor: PERRIER BRUNO
IPC: F02K9/97
Filed: 1996-12-27
Abstract: This extendable divergent tail pipe comprises a first divergent part (20) having an upstream extremity connected to the back (14) of the propulsion unit, a second divergent part (22) in the form of a ring that moves from a retracted position to a deployed position in which it connects with the downstream extremity of the first part (20), thus extending the latter, and an extension mechanism comprising numerous articulated branches (30). Means (50, 52) are distributed along the periphery of the lower extremity of the first divergent part and along the periphery of the upper extremity of the divergent ring in order to enable the divergent ring (22) to clamp on to the downstream extremity of the first divergent part (20) when the divergent ring is in the deployed position. The extension mechanism comprises at least four branches (30) forming, together with the divergent ring (22), a hyperstatic whole, such that the ring can be displaced without being substantially deformed, in order to be moved into the desired position for automatically and completely attaching itself to the first divergent part (20) when it is deployed.

microphone compartment. Acoustical transparent openings (8) perforate a recessed part (23) of the
upper halve (22) to allow for acoustical transparency. A microphone unit (12) is centred and kept in

pad (19), which covers the whole acoustic sensitive area of the microphone unit (12). and which
separates the space above the membrane . The acoustically transparent pad (19) separates the space
above the membrane from the outside atmosphere and thus protects the membrane against moisture of
the speaker's breath.

Abstract: The invention relates to a handling tool for the oral self-administration
of a radioactive capsule, comprising a tubular
body, which has a duct for passing the capsule, said duct
extending from the upper end of said body to the lower end
thereof, and which body is provided with a fingergrip at its

An intermediate portion of said duct is widened to constitute an
elongated room for accommodating a cartridge of a shielding
material in a longitudinally (axially) slidable manner, said
room comprising a first portion coaxial with the duct, which
first portion connects the two parts of the duct, viz. an upper
part and an inlet part for the capsule, and is so dimensioned
that it can accommodate said cartridge slidably between a first

Abstract: A head (10) for extrusion of a plastic material which is responsive to localized pressure variations at least when it is in a flowable state, for making a wall layer of a pipe, comprises a plastic material feeding channel (12) from an inlet duct (11) to a first annulus-shaped outlet (13) for extrusion of the plastic material in a tubular form. The feeding channel (12) has a continuously decreasing height on moving away from the inlet duct. The annulus at a furthermost area from the inlet duct may have a sector (13a) of a predetermined angular width which has a greater thickness than the remaining annulus portion. Thus the material can be extruded without submitting it to localized pressure variations while maintaining a high evenness over 360° and thereby achieving a substantial uniformity in the wall thickness.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for
monitoring the quality of a moving web (8) of multicolor
print during a printing process, comprising monitoring of
the mutual location of the various colors on the basis of
marks (21-26) arranged on the web of print and further
monitoring the location in longitudinal direction (L) and
transversal direction (T) of the web of print (8) in
relation to at least one printing press (2, 3, 4, 5). The
location of the web of print (8) in relation to the
printing press (2, 3, 4, 5) is determined by determining
the location of the marks (21-26) in relation to the
printing press (2, 3, 4, 5), for instance by recording
images (31) of the marks (21-26) from a point (30) that
is fixed in relation to the printing press (2, 3, 4, 5),
and measuring the location of the marks (21-26) in each
recorded image (31). The web of print (8) need not be
supported during recording of the image (31). 
     The invention further relates to a device (12)
for carrying out these method, comprising means (27) for
monitoring the mutual location of the various colors on
the basis of marks (21-26) arranged on the web of print
(8), and means (28) integrated therewith for monitoring
the location in longitudinal and transversal direction
(L, T) of the web of print (8) in relation to a printing
press (2, 3, 4, 5). The color monitoring means (27) and
the location monitoring means (28) comprise image
recording means (14) fixedly connected to the printing
press (2, 3, 4, 5) and programmable processing and
control means (29) connected therewith, said means being
arranged for measuring the location of the marks (21-26)
in a recorded image (31). The image recording means (14)
may be arranged for recording sharp images from various
distances (35) from the moving web of print (8), in that
they may comprise a telecentric lens (17).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a setting foot (1) for positioning machines, for example, on a base. The setting foot (1) comprises two setting members (2, 8) which can be mutually vertically displaced with respect to one another by means of a screw thread. The upper setting member (8) comprises a spherical surface, along which a bearing plate (17) with a spherical surface can slide. A first flexible sealing ring (21) may be accommodated between the lower (2) and the upper setting member (8), and, in the event of rotation of the upper setting member (8), bridges the spacing between the two setting members (2, 8). As a result, contamination of the screw thread is prevented. A second sealing ring (27) may be positioned along the outer circumference of the bearing plate (17), so that the curved surfaces are protected from the lateral penetration of dirt or moisture. A height indication (23) may be accommodated along the outer circumference of the upper or lower setting member (2, 8), which height indication can be covered by the sealing element (21). A lower O-ring (25) may also be accommodated, in order to prevent the penetration of moisture or dirt along the underside of the setting foot (1).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a fuel
control apparatus for an in-cylinder injection
internal combustion engine suitable for use with in-cylinder
injection internal combustion engines which
can cut according to the operating state of the
engine the supply of fuel to the combustion chamber
is cut. In the in-cylinder injection internal
combustion engine, the object of the invention is to
render it possible to make a transition to a fuel
cut mode and a transition from a fuel cut mode to a
fuel injection mode without causing a switching
shock. In the in-cylinder injection internal
combustion engine which can select a compression
stroke injection mode, the fuel control apparatus is
provided with deceleration state detection means
(41), idle detection means (38), target air-fuel
ratio setting means (107) for setting a target air-fuel
ratio for the compression stroke injection
mode, and air-fuel ratio control means (108) for
controlling an air-fuel ratio, based on the target
air-fuel ratio. The target air-fuel ratio setting
means (107) sets as the target air-fuel ratio a
first target air-fuel ratio present on a relatively
rich side, when it is judged from the detection
result of detection means (41 and 38) that the 
internal combustion engine is in a deceleration
state and not in an idle state, at the time of the
compression stroke injection mode, and also sets as
the target air-fuel ratio a value changed stepwise
toward a second target air-fuel ratio leaner than
the first target air-fuel ratio when the internal
combustion engine is in a deceleration state and in
an idle state.
